I got chills. Assen is a track that exposes raw rider ability. Ogura wrestled the RS-GP into submission there and stood at the top. A Japanese win after 22 years isn't luck. It's a place only a rider who can build every phase of a corner, from entry to exit, can ever reach.

Didn't know Trackhouse was an Aprilia team.

Piaggio's commemorative time sale feels very much like riding the coattails, but hey, it's a celebration, I'll let it slide.

How much off is the time sale? Suddenly curious if Aprilia's getting cheaper.

Winning on an RS-GP26 out of satellite team Trackhouse is quietly insane.

Ogura, yes!! First in 22 years, I could cry.

Since Tamada in 2004, huh... has it really been that long.
